Ingredients

Scale

For the Chicken

  • 1 pound Chicken Breast

For the Vegetables

  • 2 cups Mixed Vegetables (such as bell peppers, broccoli, or snap peas)

For the Rice

  • 2 cups Rice

For the Bang Bang Sauce

  • 1/2 cup Mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup Sweet Chili Sauce
  • 2 tablespoons Sriracha

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Rice: Cook the rice according to package instructions, typically taking 15-20 minutes, until tender and fluffy.
  2. Heat the Skillet: Place a skillet over medium heat and add a splash of oil to prevent sticking and aid cooking.
  3. Cook the Chicken: Add the chicken breasts to the heated skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
  4. Sauté the Vegetables: Add the mixed vegetables to the skillet with the chicken and sauté together for 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  5. Mix the Sauce: In a separate bowl, combine mayonnaise, sweet chili sauce, and sriracha, adjusting the sriracha to your preferred spice level and mixing well to create a creamy bang bang sauce.
  6. Assemble Your Bowl: Start by spooning cooked rice into each serving bowl, then top with the cooked chicken and sautéed vegetables. Drizzle the bang bang sauce generously over the top before serving.

Notes

  • Customize your bowl by adding toppings like sliced green onions, sesame seeds, or chopped cilantro for extra flavor and texture.
  • Leftover bang bang chicken bowls can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Feel free to substitute brown rice or quinoa for additional fiber and a nutty flavor.
  • You can swap chicken breast for thighs if you prefer a juicier texture.
